BIG GIGANTIC at The Ogden Theatre 1/21/12

Big Gigantic Colorado Winter Tour 2012 Poster
Two years ago I saw Big Gigantic in a venue with about 90 people. This time there were hundreds and hundreds of people! A big change, but such a great change it was! They played four nights in Colorado last week starting in Aspen, then in Ft. Collins and Boulder before they got to my city, Denver. Big Gigantic is such a cool music group.  Their group consist of two guys - one who plays the saxophone and works the computer while the other plays the drums. The saxophone gives them such a unique and fun style! Who doesn't love some saxophone? This was such a fun show and they had the crowd going nuts from the very beginning. Sometimes artists will have a slow start up but seriously the crowd was jumping around for the first song like they had been doing it all night! (The opening acts were great I must add, but I'm sure Big G is why they were pumped up). Big Gigantic's style is fresh and fantastic! You should definitely check these guys out if you haven't already. Below is a video Kevin took at the show of them playing their remix of "Black & Yellow." (Remember to mute my music playlist).


These guys also just released a new album on January 11 called "Nocturnal." I'm still getting acquainted with most of the songs, but some of my older favorites from Big G include, "Light of Day", "High Life", and "Wide Awake". And by the way, I have to comment on their new(?) light set up that you can see in the picture below. I loved the "pod"-looking light set ups they had that displayed amazing visuals throughout the show. Haven't seen any like this yet!
